offsetting the distress of the previous entry

The flight to Edinburgh was fine, and on the bus ride from the airport was just gorgeous -- which was even more striking because it was just residential houses.

I hadn't realized the Fringe Festival was going on as well [The Bacchae is the International Festival, so it hadn't occurred to me to see if there were other festivals going on at the same time], so in addition to street musicians and street performers, I took in 3 theatre performances last night (including Corpus Christi, which I cried through so much of). Oh, and I tried absinthe (and was unimpressed).

Looking at the map, I'm guessing that's North Bridge/South Bridge which as you go farther away from Princes St. and High St. turns into Nicolson St. and then Clerk St. and so on :)

(And Googling suggests 7-11 Nicolson Street as an address, so that sounds promising.)
